Show HN: SlickGPT
Agreed! I've found that staying in my workflow leads to fewer inadvertent context switches (like ChatGPT in-browser -> HN -> ... -> rabbit hole). MacGPT looks great. I created a similar plugin for my Windows keystroke launcher for the same reason. If anyone's interested, you can check it out here: https://github.com/dkgv/pinpoint

Sol: Open-source Alfred/Raycast alternative for macOS
I shared the exact same sentiment when I transitioned to Windows after a long period of only using macOS. I eventually began building a launcher myself using C# and over time it has become my daily driver. Feel free to check it out at https://github.com/dkgv/pinpoint, PRs welcome :-)
A few other nice candidates I found include:
- Keypirinha: https://keypirinha.com/
- Wox: https://github.com/Wox-launcher/Wox
- ueli: https://github.com/oliverschwendener/ueli

What's a program you made that you actually use regularly?
Don't have a video unfortunately, but you can download it from here: https://github.com/dkgv/pinpoint/releases (pick the stand-alone release unless you have .NET 5 installed already)

My friend and I made an open source, extensible keystroke launcher for Windows
As the title states we made a keystroke launcher for Windows, sort of an Alfred alternative. It is definitely still a work in progress, but we do have quite a few features at this point such as controlling Spotify, searching the web via DuckDuckGo bangs and a lot more. A full list of features and a download link is available at our repo at https://github.com/dkgv/pinpoint. If you're interested in trying it out or even contributing, please check it out :)

Sol: Open-source Alfred/Raycast alternative for macOS
Sol is nice and then again it seems young and a bit lacking.
File search https://github.com/ospfranco/sol/issues/45 or opening files / apps in finder is not yet possible.
Did not understand how to alter search engine.
Window manager does not allow to use screen quarters.
Clearly this has huge potential. Maybe more developers will join the effort.
